Operator, can you help me?
Help me if you please
Give me the right area code
And the number that I need
My rider left on the midnight flyer
Singing like a summer breeze
Think she′s somewhere down south
Down about Baton Rouge
I just can't remember a number
A number I can use
Directory don′t have it, central forgot it
Tryin' to find a number to use
Tryin' to check out her number
Tryin′ to run down her line
Operator said, "That′s privileged information
And it ain't no business of mine"
It′s floodin' down in Texas
The poles are out in Utah
Got to find a private line
She could be hangin′ 'round the steel mills
Or workin′ in a house of blue lights
Ridin' a getaway bus out of Portland
Singing to the night
I don't know where she′s goin′
Don't care where she′s been
Long as she's been doin′ it right
Long as she's been doin′ it right
